Introduction.
This is the initial skype meeting between the two classes where you introduce yourselves to each other.
Step one - My ANZAC Story.
This is where each student creates a page and talks about their ANZAC Story. What do you and your family do on ANZAC Day? Why is ANZAC day significant to you and your family? Please share your family history of those members of your family who may have served in one of the conflicts (World War One or Two, Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, Afganistan etc).
